This is by far the best accommodation we’ve been to in Sri Lanka. Even though some people avoid this area during February as it’s considered low season, we had the best experience. It was quiet, sunny and relaxing. Anna and Nicolo are the best hosts and help out with whatever you need; surfing, safari, transport, etc. Their restaurant has delicious traditional pizza, pasta and more. Besides that, we saw a whole range of wildlife in the area, including free roaming elephants and crocodiles. After 3 nights I decided to extend my stay in Sri Lanka and come back for another full week at Whisky Point. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!

The resort is great but idle for couples since they are Cabanas. With kids may be not a good idea.

Absolutely stunning beach front hotel, pool was great with the kids, the chef was incredible - every dish was super tasty. We loved the outdoor chilling area and bean bags. Rooms were very spacious and stunning views of the ocean. And it was so close to the hustle of Arugam Bay!

You are more likely to meet a European than a local here.

You are more likely to meet a European than a local here. This is definately not a reflection on Sri Lankan culture, however the beach town is slow and quiet (realtively speaking) and there are plenty of shops and restaurants. And of coure, the surf is consistent and the water warm. It's a winner for a beach holiday.

The best feature of Arugam Bay is the surrounding jungle, lakes and lagoons. The main beach is very busy but other beaches, such as Peanut Farm are less crowded, Do thye Lagoon Safari and a park safari but also try surfing and relaxing on the beach.

still relatively not crowded by the locals due to the distance, and miles of unspoiled, beautiful, isolated beaches to be found. Surfers paradise, but the seas can be a bit rough for the average sea goer. accommodation can be a bit overpriced during season but you can find some reasonable accommodation if you search and ask around.

It’s was a very nice hotel that included amazing breakfast. The owner was kind and helpful and the rest of the staff as well. The hotel is located in the calmer side of Arugam Bay which was great for a good night sleep. :) We stayed in a double bed bedroom which had everything we needed.

The hotel boasts the prime location in Arugam Bay, complemented by friendly staff and a lovely garden. It offers excellent beach access. The view of the sea from the seaside rooms is breathtaking. Additionally, the hotel's provision of drinkable water for refills is a thoughtful touch.

Rooms and pool area were faultless with beautiful location around us (we saw an elephant one morning!). Location is a tuk tuk journey away from Arugam Bay but this was no problem. Hotel manager extremely helpful, and all staff very friendly.
